Coronavirus vaccinations have begun rolling out to the Marylanders who need them the most.
Two of the coronavirus vaccines approved for use one made by Pfizer and the other by Moderna require two doses, with the second dose due a couple of weeks after the first. The third, developed by Johnson & Johnson, requires just one dose.
Maryland is rolling out the vaccine in phases. On Tuesday, Maryland enters Phase 2A, meaning all Marylanders 60 and older can get the vaccine, in addition to those who remain eligible under Phase 1, including health workers, teachers, postal workers, grocery store employees and first responders.
